According to the blurb from the rijksfeed
Eighteen episodes in the life of Christ are pictured here in this late-medieval painting. In the top row: the announcement of the Incarnation to Mary (the annunciation), the Nativity, Christ's circumcision, the Adoration of the Magi, the presentation of Christ at the Temple and Jesus' entrance into Jerusalem. In the middle row: The Last Supper, praying in Gethsemane, the betrayal by Judas, Christ before Pilate, Christ being crowned with thorns and the Flagellation. Bottom row: Christ carrying the cross, the Crucifixion, the Lamentation, the Resurrection, the Ascension and the descent of the Holy Ghost.
I love this museum feed. The link I have given you is for a picture that is very huge, and consequently you can see great details.
note: look at the chair and stool details at the last supper, as well as the table/food detail. Yum.
